Sterilization and celibacy Posted: 07-18-08 10:29am
I hope you dont dismiss concerns/
questions. I am an asexual. I never wanted
children. I lived 47 years withoug having
a second thought, and never having
changed my mind. I would have wanted to be
sterilized so that there is no chance of
pregnancy but I did not have opportunity
and I always knew others would tell me to
wait because I will change my mind, all
that nonsense. I confess that the thought
of surgery always made me uneasy but I
have reasons of my own which currently are
stronger than ever for wanting
sterilization. I commonly participate as a
paid research volunteer for money.I am
going to assume that you are generally
familiar with that. Mostly, sterilized
females have the greatest chance to be
picked for high paying studies. I would
like info and advice on how I may arrange
sterilization. I need to know if I would
have to prove that I am sane like people
who want sex change opertions. I dont have
much room to write more. I will contact
you in the future. Thank you

At this age (47) and being a strong
celibate I don’t think you can achieve
anything by being sterilized. You may only
be exposed to an unnecessary risk.
If you wait for a few more years like this
until your menopause comes then you
won’t need sterilization at all.
